Thirty reasons why baseball is way better than football. Some of them are pretty shaky, for instance, Bud Selig is supposedly a good commissioner? Baseball has parity because 5 different teams have won the Series…when basically the same 2 teams fight for the AL each year and the Braves always win the NL East? But others are funny:
12. SBC Park — Stand on the walkway behind the right-field wall and take in the bay, emerald green field, San Francisco skyline and smell of garlic fries. There might not be a better place on earth.
21. Ticket prices — Take out a second mortgage if you want to see your favorite NFL team. Better yet, come to the ballpark, where there are still good seats for under $20.
27. Billy Wagner — He’s 5-9 and throws 100 mph. Next.

Wow, this isn’t biased or anything. 🙂 I love how a salary cap is a BAD idea, instant replay has NEVER been considered by MLB, all of a sudden the All-Star game MEANINGFUL, and there’s NEVER been a good football movie.
However, AMEN on the ticket prices.

Yeah, I agree — I couldn’t tell if the article was sarcastic enough. Some reasons are good, but some are not, i.e. I think Bud Selig sucks, a salary cap wouldn’t be a bad thing, and the All-Star Game should go back to being an exhibition…
